As they and others hurriedly followed, they soon stopped outside the door of the restaurant.
And the group of village women were already at the door of the restaurant.
To their surprise, all the village women knelt outside the door, seeming to be pleading for something...
Only when he got closer did Du Tingyun finally hear something clearly.
"Your Highness, you are a living god! What you said really touched our hearts!"
"Please help me, Princess, to save our daughter!"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess said such words today. It can be imagined how kind-hearted Her Royal Highness the Princess is. I think the Princess will definitely come to the rescue, right?"
"Your Highness, if you are not asleep, please come out and see us!"
"Our daughter was abandoned by her mother-in-law not long after she was born. She is our heartthrob. Please help me, girl!"
"..."
There were only about five or six women kneeling on the ground, which was really not many compared to the groups of people.
Most of the people standing around were just watching the fun.
But the number of people who came here to watch the excitement was obviously much less than the ones just now.
The streets also became a lot wider.
Bai Cang on the side whispered: "It's because what she just said resonated with these people, that's why they came to the door..."
Du Tingyun coughed twice and was about to speak when Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze walked out of the restaurant.
They had just walked upstairs when they heard the noise outside, and walked out helplessly.
When they saw them, the women instantly became very excited.
"Your Highness Princess! Are you willing to help us?"
"Your Highness the Princess is wise! Thank you, Your Highness the Princess!"
"..."
Liu Shengsheng frowned, glanced at the people on the ground, and said helplessly, "I don't even understand what you mean."
The moment she finished speaking, a woman crawled to her feet.
"Your Highness Princess! It's like this. I have given birth to three daughters. My mother-in-law couldn't bear it, so she threw my two youngest daughters into the abandoned baby tower. My youngest daughter is only five months old now, and my second daughter is They are only four or five years old now, they are both still children, they will starve to death up there!"
As soon as she finished speaking, another woman pushed her away.
"Go away. At least you have a daughter by your side. I gave birth to four daughters! All four were thrown away!
Now my family has been forcing me to continue giving birth to a boy, but I have deep feelings for all four of my children! I don’t want to give birth anymore. I’ve already lost three children, and now I’ve given up my daughter who was just born. I feel like I’m really going crazy! "
Next to him, several other women covered their faces and cried bitterly.
"My daughter was raised until she was five years old. But during this flood, everything in the house was washed away. My husband was so angry that he threw my daughter into the Abandoned Infant Tower. I didn't want to live anymore. I really didn't want to live. Already..."
"What do you think this is? When my daughter was born, I didn't even see her and was thrown up there. That's why I need the help of Her Royal Highness!"
"..."
Several people were talking to each other and almost started to move their hands.
Many of the people watching were women. Those women sighed again and again, but most of them did not speak.
However, there were a few men hiding not far away and sneering.
"Since ancient times, female dolls have been thrown away nine times out of ten. It's not a big deal. Wouldn't it be nice to have a male baby again?"
"These women are just pretentious. They try to make things difficult for other princesses, but other princesses won't care about them."
"Only men have the strength to work and carry on the family line. The floods are coming. This means that the elderly and boys in the family are almost out of food. Is there any food left for the girls?"
"That's right, it would be wise to throw it away..."
"You guys, please keep your voices down. Don't forget, the princess is a woman. What she just said was just speaking for those female dolls, wasn't it?"
Of course, some people will be angry, "Do you have any humanity? Aren't women your children?"
"Why do women deserve to be thrown away? You were also born as women, right?"
"Because you can give birth to women, but you end up taking women's lives as your own. You live such a disgusting life. Does your own mother know?"
"It's just like what the princess said, passing on the family line word by word, making it seem like your family has a throne to inherit."
"..."
The crowd was bustling and noisy.
Liu Shengsheng stared at the crying women and finally opened her mouth: "What is the Abandoned Baby Tower?"
Everyone sighed, Her Royal Highness did not know about the Abandoned Infant Tower.
Nan Muze's face was serious, and he didn't seem to know what it was.
It was Du Tingyun who said, "Shengsheng, it's getting very late. You should go and rest first. I'll handle this matter."
"I'm not sleepy, I'm a little curious."
Liu Shengsheng said slowly, then squatted in front of the women.
"I heard you all mentioned the Foundling Tower, what is that?"
In fact, you can probably tell it just by listening to the name.
But Liu Shengsheng still couldn’t believe it...
Until one of the women said: "It is a place specially used to abandon babies. There was that place many, many years ago, but I heard that in the beginning, only some people who could not afford to raise their own children would abandon their babies. When they go in, almost all of them are seriously ill or disabled, or they die at birth, and their families don’t have the financial resources to organize funerals..."
"What now?" Liu Shengsheng asked.
The woman swallowed her saliva and said, "Nowadays, some baby girls are abandoned."
Liu Shengsheng was shocked, "Baby girl?"
"Yes! Generally, abandoned baby towers are built in the wilderness. If a baby girl is thrown into it, she will either starve to death, or her cries will attract wolves, tigers and leopards. Anyway, the final outcome is the same. die……"
"In order for us to have a boy, we have to keep having babies until we have a boy!"
"They also knew they couldn't afford to raise so many children, so they abandoned the baby girls."
"Most people in the village regard baby girls as useless things. They can only eat but cannot work. Therefore, many of them are abandoned by their families as soon as they are born. All of them are thrown into the abandoned baby tower, and only a few of them care about it. Kind-hearted people are reluctant to part with their own flesh and blood, or those with better family conditions who can give birth to several children at the same time will keep a baby girl. How pitiful..."
"Your Highness, my two children were abandoned the day before yesterday. After hearing what you said today, I dared to come to you for help. You are the reincarnation of a god and you are extremely kind-hearted. You will definitely help me save my children. Right?"
"I really want to take the baby back, but I really don't dare to save it. If I do, my husband will break my legs!"
"Please help me, Princess!"
"..."
Those women kept saying things to me.
Every word made Liu Shengsheng tremble with fear.
